Fridge fan noisy

My 2012 Sabre 5er has a kitchen slide out and the fridge cooling fan makes an annoying noise...something like a loud mosquito.

The fridge is in the slide out and the 12 v fan goes on when the temp gets too high....because of the side venting instead on roof venting.

The fan works ok but is too noisy. I looked at it and it is not broken and seems to be working fine...just too noisy.

It is a Sunon 75 cfm fan.

Anybody else experience this annoyance?

EVERYONE experiences that problem. You can find many posts on the topic here.

I've heard that Dometic will replace them with something quieter, and many people have done their own replacement (with computer fans). Just make sure that you don't reduce the airflow with a replacement fan that you choose.
